debjo Posted May 24, 2014 #6 Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) For Pepper... Magnificent pictures from our marvelous trip...thank you so much for sharing your beloved QM2 photos with us and taking us back to that glorious week. Your shots of the moonlit night views were spectacular, especially in light of the fact that the sunsets were few and far between. What kind of camera do you have? Your zoomed in shots are so clear! With your many times on the QM2, you know exactly where to get the great pictures from. We appreciate all your efforts in labeling them, as it will help us to identify some of many pictures that we took. WELL DONE !!! You and your previous photos were an enormous help to us as we planned for this epic crossing...even now, in the aftermath of our week aboard this famous ship, we're again assisted with your on-going knowledge. We're so glad that we got to meet you onboard and share our appreciation with you in person. Hopefully our paths will cross again, as we hope to enjoy the QM2 again in our cruising (and now crossing) future. As always, Deb & Kerry Edited May 24, 2014 by debjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brigittetom Posted May 24, 2014 #9 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Thank you so much....I've been anxiously awaiting your wonderful pictures. I only took a few people pictures because I figured "why bother, yours are so much better anyway". And I was right....wonderful pictures as always but I enjoyed these even more knowing I was there......somewhere. I love that you got a few kennel pictures as I finally made my way up there but minus the camera. Thank you I think it's about time to look at all of your pictures again, I have a few days to spare. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debjo Posted May 25, 2014 #13 Share Posted May 25, 2014 For brigittetom... I had to put my cursor over each of pepperrn's photos and move it to get the "labels"...it should work for you too. Debjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As always, Deb & KerryDear Deb and Kerry, It was great to meet you, both in the Commodore Club and later around the ship :) . So happy to read you've enjoy the photos, it was, as you say, a glorious week! I took around a dozen of the moonlight on the ocean, but couldn't decide which of the final three I liked most (which is why there are near "repeats"!). Most shots were taken on an old Sony camera (which is almost a museum piece these days!), I also use a couple of others (including a 'phone with a camera :eek: ). I too am so very pleased that I got to meet you, and thank you for the warm welcome :) . I'd also be delighted if our paths cross on QM2 again, meanwhile very happy sailings for all your future cruises :) , Thank you again :o :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So delighted to read that you enjoyed them so much. It was a great honour to meet you both, in the Commodore Club and later in the Chart Room. Whenever I visited the kennels (or the "Deck 12 Terrace Suite" :D ) most of the occupants seemed indifferent to my camera and refused to keep still and pose :rolleyes: ! Once again, it was a real pleasure to have several chats with you both. All the very best to both of you, I do hope our paths cross again soon :) .

I looked at both QV and QE in Southampton and remembered that you two were on board both ships so very recently, back and forth across the Pacific :) . I also remembered our day in Winchester :) .

The send off with the military band and fireworks looks amazing.Hi DWhit, Thank you for the compliments :o , The band playing on the quay made it feel like a traditional send-off, and the fireworks were far better than the photos can show. Sailing slowly past QV and QE in the dark with horn salutes between the three ships, and many passengers cheering QM2, was magical. Many happy sailings for the future :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
